GAS-BURNER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 328,839, dated October20, 1885.

Application filed January 8, 1885. Serial No. 152,336. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, WINANT B. COLE, a citizen of the United States,residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, haveinvented new and useful Improvements in GasBurners, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention has for its object to provide a novel gas-burner; and itconsists in the combination of devices hereinafter described andclaimed, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, in which--Figure 1 representsa vertical section in the plane 00 m, Fig. 3. Fig. 2is a sectional side View, the plane of section being indicated by theline 3 3 Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section in the plane 2 2, Fig.1.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.

In the drawings, the letter A designates a gas-cock, the shell of whichconnects at one end with a gaspipe, while its other end supports thegas-burner B. Between the gas burner and the shoulder of the shell isplaced a washer, a, from which rises a standard, 12, to which is securedthe platina coil 0. Beneath this platina coil is situated a gas-jet, O,which communicates with the gasway beneath the plug of the gas-cock. Theburner -tip rises a short distance above the platina coil.

By means of the washer a and standard I) the platina coil can be readilyadjusted in the required position directly above the gasjet 0, and whenonce adjusted said coil is not liable to be thrown out of position,while at the same time the washer, together with the standard and coil,can be readily removed, if it is desirable to introduce a fresh coil, orfor any other purpose.

In order to shut off the gas-jet, a second cock must be inserted intothe gas-pipe beneath said jet.

The burner B is inclosed into an illuminating air chamber, D, formed byajacket, F, of glass or other transparent material, and by a cap, E,fitted upon this jacket. This cap rises slightly above the burner-tip,and is provided with an opening for the gas-flame.

Ifthe gas issuing from the burner-tip is ignited, the air in the chamberD is heated and the illuminating power of the flame is increased. At thesame time the gas which issues from the jet Ois also ignited and theplatina coil is heated to a white heat. If,

now, the supply of gas to the burner is shut off by closing the gas-cockA, the flame of the jet continues to burn, and by the incandescentplatina coil sut'iicient light is produced to enable a person to read inclose proximity to the burner. At the same time, as soon as the gas cockA is again opened, the gas issuing from the burner B is at once ignited,and all attempts to blow out the flame are futile, so that personsunacquainted with the properties of illuminating-gas are not liable tobecome suffocated by the escape of gas from the burner.

What I claim as'new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. The combination, with a gas-burner, of a gas-jet pipe communicatingwith the gasway and terminating at its upper end below the burner-tip, awasher movably supported below the burner, a standard rising from thewasher, and a platina coil supported by the upper end of the standardbetween the gas-jet pipe and the burner-tip, substantially as described.

2. The combination of the detachable gasburner, a gas-jet pipecommunicating with the gasway, a washer movably supported below theburner and removable when the latter is detached, a standard rising fromthe washer beside the burner, and a platina coil supported by the upperend of the standard between the gasjet pipe and the burner,substantially as described.

3. The combination of the gas-cock A, having its shell provided at itsupper end with a shoulder, a gas-burner, a gas-jet pipe, C,communicating with the gasway below the gas-eock, a washer, a, removablyheld between the burner and the shoulder on the shell, a standard, I),rising from and removable with the washer, a platina coil, 0, supportedby the standard between the upper end of the jet-pipe and theburner-tip, and the illuminating-chamber D, supported at its lower endby the shell of the gas-cock, substantially as and for the purpose setforth.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in thepresence of two subscribing Witnesses.
